The Hit Factory: Stock, Aitken and Waterman

Episode 3: Everyone's Favourite Neighbour(s)


In the third episode of this four part series, Josh Widdicombe and comedian and friend Matthew Crosby discuss the amazing story of Stock, Aitken and Waterman's 'Hit Factory' record label...


When we left them, Stock, Aitken and Waterman were fully in their pomp and had topped the charts with countless hits. The jewel in their crown - Rick Astley’s ‘Never Gonna Give you up’ - was #1 in 27 countries!


And just when they thought things couldn’t get any better, a nearly shambolic encounter with a then barely famous soap actress called Kylie Minogue took the Hit Factory to a whole new level… this episode is especially for you. Enjoy!! xxx
